Yes, the AN124 was still sitting on the tarmac at Rocky when I went home at 6pm last night. It has done 2 trips at the start and now 2 trips at the end of the Singapore games. One trip takes 2 chooks and the other 4 Apache & 1 Super Puma choppers. (the other Super Pumas stay at Oakey)

Talking to the refueler they uplift about 120,000 litres for a trip to S'pore.

The F-16s have been providing regular noise for us (twice a day most days). An afterburner twilight takeoff is most impressive to watch.
